Abstract :
A new method is adapted in electrical impedance tomography reconstruction calculation by reconstructing the conductivity of nodes. In practice, this new method can improve the reconstruction calculation speed and the reconstruction picture quality. The reconstruction pictures, compared with traditional method, are given to prove the validity of the method
